This is very… “earthy”. And peppery. And wee bit metallic. I don’t really have much to say, I feel like I’m having a completely different tea from the other reviews. No sweetness that’s for sure. It’s not unpleasant, but I’ve had other black teas I like a lot more, so I doubt I’d restock this.
Is the slightly metallic taste an interpretation of astringency?
Lessee. Sipper of tea, hooker of yarn, player of video games.
I’m mostly on a mission to try ALL THE BLACK TEA at the moment. When I do venture out of my niche, it’s mostly to dabble in pu-erh and roasted anythings.
Annnd mostly to keep myself consistent…
1-40: Ptoo ptoo!
41-60: Eh. Could do with or without.
61-70: Mm. Good but probably won’t get more.
71-85: Yum! Would keep a bit around!
86-100: ((incoherent slavering))
